Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: MCU Group 1 Post by: Spider-Dan on March 31, 2020, 03:32:54 am Winter Soldier is an easy pick for me. I can't think of a group of 4 movies in which it wouldn't get my vote.
Tough call between Civil War and Endgame for my second pick. I ended up going with Endgame because of all the awesomeness of the final fight against Thanos, and Endgame's achievement as the culmination of a 12-year-long project to bring some of my favorite characters and storylines into mass pop culture. The fact that a movie like Endgame could even exist would have been unthinkable when I was a kid.

Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: MCU Group 1 Post by: Dave Gray on March 31, 2020, 01:09:23 pm Winter Soldier is maybe my favorite MCU movie...I really like it a lot.
I also chose Endgame. It's tight between that and Civil War. I think Endgame is just a bigger spectacle. Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: MCU Group 1 Post by: Brian Fein on April 01, 2020, 02:45:11 pm Endgame is head and shoulders above the other three in this group. The second was a toss-up between Winter Soldier and Civil War. Civil War was an EXCELLENT movie, but I voted for Winter Soldier only because its the last appearance of the "cool version" of Bucky. He was a total bad ass with the mask and bravado of a villain, but then he turns back into softie Bucky and becomes an insufferable tool.
